The course will be held at the College of Engineering, Pune for 6 weeks (2 hours per day, 6 days per week) starting August 28, 2006. The course will be conducted by faculty with Ph. D. and Masters degrees from IIT with more than 10 years experience in industrial CFD and consulting.

Forschungszentrum Rossendorf (FZR) is a publicly funded research organization and an institute member of the Wissenschaftsgemeinschaft G. W. Leibniz consortium for utilizing basic research in practical applications. One of six institutes within the FZR, the Institute for Safety Research performs research on the assessment and improvement of technical infrastructures. Its focus is on nuclear reactors, including thermo-hydraulic and neutron kinetic code development and verification for nuclear safety analysis, investigation of thermo-hydraulic effects, development of measurement techniques, material research, simulation of radiation fields, mechanical integrity of technical systems, and process control.

DEM Solutions, a leading developer of discrete element modeling software solutions, has announced that it has been selected to team with scientists and engineers from NASA to develop a new modeling capability which adds electrostatic forces to the particle dynamic modeling capability already available within its core EDEM software suite. DEM Solutions will develop the models and software while NASA will provide the laboratory data and perform the model verification.

This conference represents a unique opportunity for technical exchange between CFD-ACE+, CFD-FASTRAN, CFD-CADalyzer and PAM-FLOW users as well as a preview of upcoming technical advancements. The program includes CFD applications of semiconductor processes, plasma, biotechnology, MEMS and microfluidics, fuel cell, biomedical, as well as the general field of CFD with special emphasis in the areas of multiphysics applications.

A unique feature in Johnson Design’s Denali Flushometer flush valve is that it delivers a fixed volume of water independent of the position of the restriction on the rolling diaphragm which is randomly installed at various positions during the valve assembly. Johnson Design Engineering Manager Dustin Borg used EFD.Lab to evaluate the performance of the valve as the restriction was rotated 360 degrees in order to ensure that it delivered the right amount of water in each position.
